The Mercs Of Mikunn are a long standing squadron that has existed since the beginning of Elite Dangerous. What started out as just a group of players tinkering about with the background simulation to see how it works and what effects we, as players, can have on the galaxy, evolved into a tightly nit group of commanders that grew their chosen faction(s) from a small little corner of the bubble into a large player within the border worlds. Since our inception we have focused on the inner workings of the BGS by expanding our chosen minor faction: The Dukes of Mikunn while sharing what we learned along the way with the community. Over time we took a back seat and retreated into our little corner of the galaxy and continued our work, offering help where needed and expanding where possible.
Who are we:
We are a small, tight nit, independent squadron on the fringes of the bubble; our main base of operation are the four systems where everything began: Mikunn, Kwatee, Sukua and HR 7327. Though we have since added Sefry's to the list of main locations and have expanded in multiple locations, these systems are the home of the Mercs. We primarily play in Open but do not enforce this playstyle on our members, they are free to choose whichever game mode they desire.
We are primarily a BGS group, working on maintaining and expanding our chosen factions as well as assisting our allies when needed. We ensure that the work we put into the BGS does not reach into unwanted locations nor does it negatively affect our allies and as such we tend to not engage in combat with other player controlled factions, preferring to use diplomacy first and foremost as a means to reach a favorable result for both parties.
Due to how the BGS works we incorporate all activities into our work, be it bounty hunting, trading, mining or exploring. As veteran commanders we are more than happy to assist you in reaching any goal you set for yourself, giving you tips on how to efficiently complete said goal(s).
Why join us:
We have little to no demands from you other than being civil and protecting our factions and allies. We are a laid back group that understand this is just a video game, your life comes first and we will not expect nor force you to dedicate your life to it. Just as we will never force you to do things you do not enjoy. Each member in the Mercs is specialized in something and enjoys doing a specific activity and this is how we have operated from the start.
Powerplay:
When it comes to powerplay, in true mercenary fashion, we do not impose on who to support nor we do officially support any power. As a mercenary you are free to choose whichever you feel is right for you, just do not open fire on your fellow mercs, the Dukes don't pay us to kill each other after all.
Though we are not an RP squadron we have done our best to create the lore behind us and our faction, you can find more about our origins in this old thread (sadly a lot of link are lost to time) and you can also find our Inara page here:
